The Bangladesh women's team sometimes pulls off victories that seem unbelievable but sometimes loses in ways that are hard to accept. Yesterday's opponent Australia women's team batted first and gave the target of 214 runs to Bangladesh women's team, which is an easy target for other teams, but it is a difficult target for Bangladesh. Moreover, Bangladesh targeted this run under nervous pressure and was bowled out for only 95 runsdone In other words, Bangladesh could not take the easy target too easily, but fell under pressure and got all out for 95 runs and lost by a big margin of 118 runs. In fact, the Bangladesh team lacked confidence in the team and especially with three batsmen being run out, that target became more difficult and eventually Bangladesh were bowled out for 95 runs.
Be it the men's team or the women's team. Growth of Bangladeshi team is hampered by the fact that they doesn't have a proper first class structure. They received the test status almost 25 years ago. And all these years, the BCB didn't found it important enough to set up a proper first class competition. What they have is a Dhaka based system where clubs play against each other. Whenever there is a suggestion to spread cricket beyond the capital city, Dhaka based clubs raise objection and sabotage the proposal.
